Doesn’t that look FUN!?!? There is SO much more that can be done with Spellbinders dies than what meets the eye!! Grab your favorite set and a canvas and see what you come up with!!! You’ll be glad you did!   I am new to watercolor paints, Gesso AND Modeling Paste, so if I can do it, so can you!!  Just grab a canvas and start playing! Nothing is wrong… if you don’t like it… just keep adding more paint, stamps, layers… until you DO like it!!  Explore BEYOND!!
Here is a second project that I created using the SAME two die templates (Plus a couple of others)! I love how versatile they are!! Stop by tomorrow for a quick video showing you how to create this project as well!
